Jack Catterall remained on course for a world title shot with a routine win. The Chorley super-lightweight is the mandatory challenger to WBO champion Maurice Hooker and will be hoping to get a clash against the Texan next time out.
Zak Chelli captured a title in just his seventh fight. The Fulham super-middleweight was composed as he claimed a shutout victory over Jimmy Smith at the SSE Arena in Wembley, London. Chelli dropped his opponent in the eighth, exclusively live on BT Sport, as part of the supporting cast to Daniel Dubois' heavyweight clash against Richard Lartey.
Austin Williams will be afforded no time off after winning on his debut. The 22-year-old middleweight knocked out Joel Guevara inside a round on Friday night. Williams made his bow in the paid code at the Forum in Inglewood, California.
Carl Frampton insists he will return to the ring this summer -- despite plans being disrupted by a court date postponement. The 32-year-old had initially hoped to get his upcoming case against Cyclone Promotions and the McGuigans out of the way in May before then fighting in July or August.
Dereck Chisora got back in the positive column with a rather forgettable win. The heavyweight was knocked out by Dillian Whyte back in December. Chisora took on Senad Gashi at the O2 Arena in London.
Jazza Dickens will be back in title action very soon. The 28-year-old knocked out Nasibu Ramadhan on Friday, exclusively live on iFL TV. Dickens, who linked up with Tony Bellew in the build-up to his return, is now mandatory for Leigh Wood’s Commonwealth featherweight title after icing the Tanzanian at the Eventim Olympia in Liverpool atop an MTK Global Fight Night card.
Conor Benn has had his next foe confirmed. The 22-year-old welterweight has been out of action since last July. Benn, who won a unanimous decision over Cedrick Peynaud in a rematch at the O2 Arena in London, had been set to defend his WBA Continental title on Saturday at the same venue.
Jack McGann has had his next fight date confirmed. The former MMA man was last in action last month. McGann outpointed Eric Nwankwo over six rounds at the King George’s Hall in Blackburn.
Callum Smith could be forced to look elsewhere if he plans to unify the division. The 28-year-old was at ringside on Friday night as his gym-mate Anthony Crolla was knocked out by Vasyl Lomachenko in a challenge for the WBA and WBO world lightweight titles.
Charles Frankham will make his professional debut later this month. The 19-year-old had been set to make his bow in the paid code back in February but unforeseen circumstances forced him off a show at the O2 Arena in London. But Frankham, who won 71 of his 77 bouts as an amateur and won 11 national titles, will box at the same venue on April 20.
